What is the difference between enlisted and officer in the marines




















There are several paths to earning an officer commission in the armed forces. Some 1, colleges and universities nationwide offer ROTC. This military training program grants scholarships to help pay for college in exchange for military service after graduation. Students enrolled in ROTC attend training and take specialized classes alongside their regular academic classes.

Each service branch has its own undergraduate institution that educates and trains its future leaders. Admission to military academies is highly competitive. Students should begin preparing during high school to ensure they meet the high standards and strict requirements for acceptance. Military academies offer free tuition and room and board in exchange for a commitment to serve as an active-duty officer for a period of time after graduation, usually at least five years.

Direct commissions may be available to civilians with certain highly specialized professional degrees that are in demand in the services. Doctors, lawyers, clergy and engineers are among the professionals who are most in demand and therefore most likely to receive a direct commission.

Professionals who receive a direct commission receive officer training to help them transition from civilian to military life and learn leadership skills. Though less common, enlisted members may apply to become a commissioned officer. Some branches of service offer programs in which an enlistee earns a college degree and attends officer school while serving in the military. It is also possible to become a warrant officer — a technical and tactical leader — without holding a four-year college degree.
